Q3 planning notes

Here are the key takeaways

from today’s meeting…

Three steps. Forward and forget.

No webhooks. No filters. No fragile mail rules.

  1. Step 01

    Forward to your address

    Each account gets a unique @mail2note.com address. Send or forward from any client, on any device.

  2. Step 02

    Automatic conversion

    HTML becomes clean markdown. Sender, subject, and date become YAML frontmatter. Attachments are kept as separate files.

  3. Step 03

    Syncs into your vault

    The Obsidian plugin polls the server, writes the note into your chosen folder, and tells us to delete the copy. Configure once.


Built for the way you work.

Six things, done with care.

Address

A personal mail2note inbox

Forward from any email client. Use it for newsletters, receipts, meeting summaries — anything that should live in your vault.

Conversion

HTML to clean markdown

Headings, links, lists, and emphasis are preserved. Email chrome and tracking pixels are left at the door.

Attachments

Files travel with the note

Images, PDFs, and other attachments are kept beside the note and synced into your vault next to it.

Storage

Encrypted at rest

Notes and attachments live on encrypted S3 storage while they wait for the next sync.

Retention

Deleted as soon as you have it

Once the plugin confirms it has the note, we delete our copy. Anything not picked up is purged within 30 days.

Plugin Under review

An extremely simple plugin

Install from the Obsidian community directory, paste an API key, pick a folder. That is the whole configuration.

Free tier

Free, with fair limits, through the end of 2026.

No card required. Sign-up takes a minute.
